Google is rolling out a new Scam Detection feature to its Pixel devices that uses on-device AI models to identify potential scam calls.

Google has announced two new real-time security privacy protections for Android, and they're rolling out now on supported Pixel devices.

Google has started rolling out Live Scam Detection to the Pixel Phone app, while an upgraded version of the Play Protect system will help detect and report any scammy Google Play apps in real time. However only the latter will be making its way to non Pixel phones, as far as we know.

Play Protect on Pixel phones monitors apps for harmful behavior, alerting users in real-time with notifications. Google already provides several tools to protect your Pixel smartphone from spam calls and messages.
